Freshwater System
•
Read the Freshwater System
section in the Cruiser & Yacht
Owner’s Manual Supplement.
•
Your yacht is equipped with a
pressure type (demand) fresh-
water (potable) system.
•
Pressurize the freshwater sys-
tem by either:
a. turning On the freshwater
pump switch (the battery
switch must also be On) or;
b. connecting to city water.
•
For the locations of the fresh-
water pump switch and the city
water inlet, see the Component
Locations section in Chapter 2
of this Owner’s Manual.
•
Always turn Off the city water
supply on the dock before
leaving your yacht unattended.
•
Turn Off the freshwater pump
switch when your yacht is not
in use or when the freshwater
tank is empty.
•
Inspect and clean the freshwa-
ter filter often (located on the
freshwater pump).
•
If your yacht is to be left unat-
tended for a long period of
time, pump the freshwater tank
dry to prevent stored water
from becoming stagnant and
distasteful.
•
If the freshwater system needs
to be disinfected, ask your
dealer about the treatments
available.
•
ONLY use safe drinking (potable) water in your yacht’s freshwater system.
•
ONLY use FDA approved "drinking water safe" hoses when filling the freshwater tank or
connecting to city water.
•
NEVER use a common garden hose for drinking water.
